My DP Team

[StelarSX]

My DP Team

I had help from Voltanis on this, but I made some changes so I wanted to see what you all would say so I could make it better.

Infernape
Blaze
(Item?)
Niave
EVs: 4HP, 252 Spd, 252 SAtk
Flamethrower
Grass Knot
Close Combat
Nasty Plot

My Mixed Sweeper.

Ludicolo
Swift Swim
(Item?)
Modest
EVs: 252 HP, 130 SATK, 126 SDEF
Energy Ball
Surf
Ice Beam
Rain Dance

My Special Sweeper?

Lanturn
Volt Absorb
(Item?)
Rash
EVs: 252 HP, 252 SATK, 4 SDEF
Surf
Ice Beam
Aqua Ring
Substitute

Should I use Lanturn or some other Pokemon?

Forretress
Sturdy
(Item?)
Relaxed
EVs: 252 HP, 160 ATK, 96 DEF
Spikes
Rapid Spin
Gyro Ball
Explosion

My physical wall.

Electivire
(Item?)
Adamant
EVs: 4 HP, 252 Atk, 252 Spd
Earthquake
Brick Break
Ice Punch
Thunderbolt

My Physical Sweeper.

And now I have no clue for the last Pokemon. I guess I need a Special Wall, but who? I'd like Dusknoir, but could someone help me on how to use Dusknoir? Also, what items should I attach to my Pokemon?

Thank you all for the help.

Life Orb

Grass Knot
Close Combat

My Mixed Sweeper.

We all know it's good, if you're adamant (you, not your poke) about keeping Ludicolo, then I'd recommend Hidden Power Ice, over Grass Knot, but it's your call.

Ludicolo
Swift Swim
Leftovers/Damp Rock
Modest
EVs: 252 HP, 130 SATK, 126 SDEF
Energy Ball
Surf
Ice Beam
Rain Dance

My Special Sweeper?

Though he's a good poke, I'd recommend removing him, he doesn't quite fit in with your team, and I mean that in the nicest possible way. If you want a good Special Sweeper, then I would recommend Roserade for this Team, so:

Roserade
Natural Cure
Focus Sash
Timid
6HP/252SATK/252SPD
Sleep Powder
Toxic Spikes
Grass Knot/Leaf Storm
Hidden Power Fire

This is also recommended as the lead of your team, so you can sleep them/lay spikes without fear of death. I can see Hidden Power being a problem, so if you really can't get it, then Sludge Bomb or Weather Ball are okay, but Steel types may wall you. Which leads me too...

Lanturn
Volt Absorb
(Item?)
Rash
EVs: 252 HP, 252 SATK, 4 SDEF
Surf
Ice Beam
Aqua Ring
Substitute

Should I use Lanturn or some other Pokemon?

Sorry mate, but Lanturn Sucks, Big Time! However, Dr. Zaloog will make your team well again. The only reason anybody would EVER use this guy is to prevent Boltbeam (Thunderbolt-Icebeam) from hurting you. To tie in with above, you can "un-wall" yourself from Steel Types and keep the type versity with Magnezone. He'll trap steel types in, and believe me it's handy.

Magnezone
Magnet Pull
Life Orb/Leftovers
Rash/Modest
Thunderbolt
Hidden Power [Ice]
Explosion/Substitute
Magnet Rise

I know hidden Power is a pain, but it's really needed here. Magnet rise getting rid of its only 4x weakness, Sub blocks tonnes of things, and Explosion...is dah bomb *facepalm*. If using explosion, go with Rash nature and Life Orb, if Sub, go with Lefties and Modest.

Forretress
Sturdy
Leftovers
Relaxed
EVs: 252 HP, 160 ATK, 96 DEF
Spikes/Stealth Rock
Rapid Spin
Gyro Ball/Steath Rock
Explosion

My physical wall.

good, though a biiiiiiig Fire weakness is coming... I think some more resistance is in order. I'd recommend trying to get rocks in there.

Electivire
(Item?)
Adamant
EVs: 4 HP, 252 Atk, 252 Spd
Earthquake
Brick Break
Ice Punch
Thunderbolt

My Physical Sweeper.

Ah, I love electivire to bits, but he's not a fit here, and the monkey and magnet pretty much take its place. I'd recommend a dragon, and though I hate it, I recommend Garchomp for here, as a physical Sweeper.

Garchomp
Yache Berry
Adamant
EVs: 4HP/252ATK/252SPD
Swords Dance
Dragon Claw/Outrage
Earthquake
Fire Fang/Blast

This'll tear a hole in the opponent's team. Yache berry will greatly help (rare, but catch a bunch of staravias and you'll get one.)

And now I have no clue for the last Pokemon. I guess I need a Special Wall, but who? I'd like Dusknoir, but could someone help me on how to use Dusknoir? Also, what items should I attach to my Pokemon?

Thank you all for the help.

Losing effort here. I say the last member should be Suicune.

Suicune
Leftovers
Calm
EVs: 252HP/252SDEF/4SATK
Surf
Roar
Rest
Sleep Talk

He'll be able to take strong special hits (except Elec/Grass and others can take them) and shuffle the opponent's team with Roar, hitting them with spikes, Toxic Spikes and maybe Rocks too.

Hope this helped, sorry I changed most of your team.
